Hi,
anyone else's battery indicator on Beta 3 not working?
Currently I help myself with the Coconut Battery app. Maybe there's an actual fix for it? Restart only 'updated' the indicator to the current battery charge, but then failed again.

Thought my new MacBook Pro was faulty as I noticed this the first time it was charging. Glad its a known issue.

Same here, mine is stuck on 23%. Just sent a feedback to apple on this. We all know this is all a BETA but that one concerned me a little. Battery count is only under 150 cycles.
 
Also relieved this is not just me. I had it plugged in and it seemed stuck on whatever percentage it was when I plugged it in. But after a reboot it showed 100%. Glad to know it's just a software issue.

Same. When it comes to battery I get concerned since it's actually affecting your hardware. Hope this will be fixed in the coming update. As of right now it seems to sometimes work again, but I can't replicate it.
 
same, it doesn't read the correct percentage. I did notice it reads properly at the password screen for FileVault.

I got really scared as I'm running it on a 2015 MacBook Pro that I bought last Saturday, so like, I was thinking I bought a failing/dead machine. luckily though I didn't as it's just this bug.
